Cron Drift

The Cron Drift or Cron Belt was a dense asteroid field in the Outer Rim Territories' Auril sector, near the Perlemian Trade Route, the Salin Corridor and the Tion Cluster, that contained the rubble of dozens star systems. It was estimated to have occurred thousands of years before the Imperial Era. Once a nebula where stars were born, the region became a dangerous hyperspace hazard filled with gravitational anomalies, asteroids, and black hole.
